《门头沟山区建设的缩影 马致远心中牵绊的家园》 11月3日星期日，天气晴好，由刘戈戈组织的北京西山的石古岩--石窟崖--道须村--马致远故居--东马各庄--石古岩的穿越活动如期举行。不到八点，地铁苹果园站前就来了不少人。今天是公交出行，考虑到人多不好坐车，先到的人先行乘929公交车到韭园出发点集合。前后四趟车人员才等齐，我看了一下，估计有百人左右，合影后开始登山。 韭园属门头沟王平镇，坐落在西山脚下，旁边就是有名的京西古道。元、明以来，京城百万人家，皆以煤炭为薪。加之这里出产石材，琉璃的烧制更是闻名京城，于是，拉煤运货的驼马成群结队，日复一日、年复一年地在山路石道上来来回回。久而久之便形成了京城到西部山区，再远至内蒙古、山西地商旅道路。道路多而且长，这些古道主要有商运道、军用道、香道，它们互通有无。其中商用道的历史遗迹最多，过了几百年历史，它们虽显出来残败的颓相，风情古韵犹在。 我们此次穿越，就是在韭园附近的山上兜了一圈，走了一个Q字。先是走过石窟崖的摩崖石刻，沿小道进山，再沿谷底前行。在大家相互帮助下，顺利通过了两处难爬的路段--两个小断壁，翻过几个山岭后到了道须村。这个道须村原来住着几十户人家，随着农村发展建设，村落逐渐荒废了。由于房屋残旧，地处山里，交通水电都不方便，经过规划，人们都迁移到山脚下的聚居区，这里就变成了一个废村。前几年还能够看到一两户人家，刘戈戈还组织过人员给一户残疾人家送过粮油等食品，现在已是空无一人了。 向日葵色板官方在道须村吃过路餐，继续上路，下面基本是顺着防火道向东下撤。现在正在开工建设的防火道，和以前比，平坦了许多，一直蜿蜒向上，延伸在山的尽头。路上，见到沉甸甸的大柿子，在枝头高高的挂着，黄橙橙的很是诱人。因为太高了，村里身形矫健的青壮劳力都到外面打工了，剩下的人没人够得着，每年都便宜了麻雀，所以，低矮地方的柿子摘了以后就没人管了。向日葵色板官方路过时捡了一个尝了尝，因为没有进行人工漤过，还是有点涩，吃完了舌头都有点不听使唤。过了柿子树林，又盘了一段防火道，就到了马致远的故居。马致远的故居是在原来的基础上，由村民集资翻建的，四周是按照马致远的诗意改造的。说到这，又想起来他的《天净沙•; 秋思》：枯藤老树昏鸦，小桥流水人家，古道西风瘦马。夕阳西下，断肠人在天涯。这个寓情于景的小令，不仅诗情画意般的描绘了京西的山水，住家，还透露了诗人怀才不遇的悲凉情怀，表现了漂泊天涯的旅人的愁思。同情归同情，时代不同了，情怀自不一样。走在回家的路上，回味着秋思的意境，如果马致远知道今天的变化，也会感到欣慰的。向日葵色板官方在路上，饱览着祖国的山川锦绣，度过了快乐的一天。 枝头摇晃满悠哉， 半宿秋寒染硝白， 盖柿金黄难诱惑， 谁知一口涩双腮。 逍遥楼主 外国驴友 领队答案 老妖 九九方略 领队一哥 调调 逍遥三千 瞌睡 阿超 薰风入炫 老五 ([]

李怡圣穿越昔日日本（江户东京建筑园）1993年，在东京都立小金井公园内开园的江户东京建筑园是一座户外型博物馆。建筑园占地约7公顷，园中排列着从江户时代到昭和初期的29栋复原建筑物，按年份排列，也就是从1652年到1942年期间的建筑。许多历史建筑物难以在建造的当地保存，却又有着极高的文化价值，建筑园的使命就是将这些历史建筑物按原样移建，并在此基础上进行保存和展示。建筑园是模仿东京都的地形而设计的。东区是商人和手艺人居住的平民区；中心区域是江户时期武士及明治时代以后（1868年～）官员及实业家等人的居住区；西区则再现了田园式的农户居住的武藏野高地。在这种独具匠心设计的园内，不同建筑保持着各自固有的环境氛围，所以在建筑园里散步，不由得产生一种时光倒流的感觉。在茅草屋顶的民宅里，每天都有志愿者在地炉里生火，这样做一方面是用烟熏防止茅草生虫，另一方面使得建筑园的来客追忆起当时的农家生活。当迈入东区平民区，一种奇妙的观光气氛便会大幅增加。之所以产生这种感觉，是因为这里有着明治时代的石造警察局建筑和街灯等物品，还有在商店的货架上摆放着仿制明治时代的商品，这不仅仅是建筑物的再现，也是将当时的生活情景进行再现。这正是江户东京建筑园的一大特征。(摘自網絡)公園內深秋的景色公園內建筑([]
小黄妻子经历
许伦孝你可以很自虐，也可以很腐败——2012年9月尼泊尔安娜普尔纳大环徒步日记 在世界十大徒步路线中，尼泊尔的安娜普尔纳大环（ACT）徒步线路荣登榜首，在全球徒步线路中综合排名第一。 在尼泊尔所有徒步线路中，安娜普尔纳大环沿途的自然景观和人文景观最为丰富，配套设施也最为完善。从海拔800米左右的Pokhara一步步上升到海拔5416的Thorung La Pass，再一步步回到Pokhara，海拨落差很大，一路上的植被地貌种类非常的丰富，从平原的阔叶森林到高海拨的高山草甸，再到寸草不生的垭口，美艳绝伦的雪山，还有那蓝得令人目眩的高山湖泊以及线路西段的荒漠和干热河谷，几乎能将尼泊尔各种地貌都走个遍，还有一路上许多各具特色的小村子和各个民族的居民。垂直高度的变化带来绝美的风景体验——森林、草甸、田园、雪山、湖泊；从安娜普尔纳山脉东坡绕着大圈走到西坡，安娜普尔纳的秀色山峰或荒漠河谷，都成为途中变化的风景，每天都会带给你意想不到的惊喜！ 安娜普尔纳地区位于尼泊尔北部，喜马拉雅山中段。安娜普尔纳保护区内高峰林立，有着无数座海拔6000米以上的山峰，其中8000米级山峰3座：DHAULAGIRI（8167M），MANASLU（8153M），ANNAPURNA I （8091M）。 DHAULAGIRI（道拉吉里，世界第七高峰，海拔8167M）MANASLU（玛纳斯鲁，世界第八高峰，海拔8153M）ANNAPURNA I （安娜普尔纳I，世界第十高峰，海拔8091M）MACHHAPUCHHRE（鱼尾峰，海拔6993M）Nilgri North （尼尔吉里，海拔7061m）ANNAPURNA II（安娜普尔纳II峰，海拔7939M）8月刚从巴基斯坦K2大本营徒步回来，9月又匆匆去尼泊尔安娜普尔纳大环徒步，一切来不及准备。第一次没有提前做功课，第一次没当头驴而选择了跟队，除了自己的时间和精力原因，更主要的是没有把大环当回事，连中文版的《尼泊尔》也懒得带，导致最后出现很多意外：被背夫甩在半路，坐大巴也被半路抛弃，错过很多观景点，对每段路程的预计也不准确，上Ghorepani那天还走了1个多小时夜路。所以，希望通过这个帖子，把我徒步大环的经历和体会拿出来与大家分享。你可以很自虐，也可以很腐败，大环有N种走法，这是我走完大环后最大的感受。一、线路的选择1、单纯的大环线；2、大环+Tilicho Lake；3、大环+Tilicho Lake+Poon Hill；4、大环+Tilicho Lake+Poon Hill+ABC（安娜普尔纳大本营）。向日葵色板官方选择的是大环+Tilicho Lake+Poon Hill，如果时间和体力允许，Tilicho Lake和Poon Hill都值得一去。二、交通工具的选择如果时间不够，可以选择坐车或飞机节省时间。1、东线可以坐车到Chamje再开始徒步，西线从Muktinath开始有区间班车可坐；2、东线可以从博卡拉坐飞机到Humde，西线可以从Jomsom坐飞机返回博卡拉；向日葵色板官方的选择是有车坐的地段尽量坐车，在风景好的地段选择徒步或停留。一般不建议飞机，一是价格贵，二是不太安全。三、向导和背夫的选择1、沿途线路识清晰，不需要向导，不想负重的可以请背夫。向导价格比背夫贵，优点是可以英语交流；2、行李不多的可以两人合请一个背夫，负重能力强的也可以自己负重徒步；3、如果喜欢腐败，你也可以请一个向导兼背夫的。四、费用的控制1、坐当地巴士比较便宜，尽量少包车，不打的；2、不请背夫，自己负重；3、山上的住宿很便宜，不用自己带露营装备；4、山上吃的较贵，充电、洗澡、热水都要钱。自己带一个炉头和套锅，再带一些快速食品，比如快餐面、麦片、紫菜蛋花汤、榨菜等，可以省下很多钱。五、几点忠告1、徒步许可证（两张不同部门的）随身带，山上有很多检查点；2、买一本中文版的《尼泊尔》，衣食住行上面全有介绍；3、背夫很重要，提前联系好，半路找背夫很困难。还有不能贪便宜，专业徒步公司的比较靠谱，一是负重能力强，二是有职业素养，不会半路加价或罢工。每个人都可以走出不一样的大环：自虐或者腐败；空手或者负重；10天——20天；只走精华部分或一网打尽；全程徒步或汽车和飞机并用；1个人或一群人；10岁或者60岁；花费1000元或者5000元（徒步期间费用，不包括来回交通费用。）；但不论你怎么走，大环都不会让你后悔！如果你喜欢雪山或者喜欢摄影，下列是你必去（最好是住宿）的几个地方：1、Timang(2610米)，看马纳斯鲁的最佳位置；2、Upper Pisang或Ghyaru（3670），看安娜普尔纳 II的最佳位置；3、Tilicho Lake（5100），世界上最高的湖，雪山环抱；4、Muktinath(3710)，初见道拉吉里，有很多村庄和寺庙；5、Marpha(2680)，苹果之乡，即使不住在这里，也应该在这里午餐，买一袋苹果，喝几杯地道的苹果汁；6、Kalopani(2530)，很容易被忽略的一个地方，这里可以同时看见道拉吉里、安娜普尔纳I和尼尔吉里；7、Poon Hill(3190)，世界最佳观景台，看道拉吉里的最佳位置，同时可以看见安娜普尔纳群山、鱼尾峰和尼尔吉里；8、萨朗科（SARANGKOT)或世界和平塔，博卡拉的两个观景台，可以看见道拉吉里、安娜普尔纳和鱼尾峰，都是拍明信片的好地方，最好都去，如果都没去，等于没来博卡拉！下面是向日葵色板官方特别推荐的几个客栈：1、泰米尔：INTERNATIONAL GUEST HOUSE （电话：252299，267888)，环境幽静，包早餐，机场免费接送，价格较贵；凤凰宾馆（电话：00977-1-4246949，4244298），中国人自己的宾馆，包早餐，换钱汇率较高，地理位置方便，方便拼车约伴，但有点嘈杂，适合初次到尼泊尔和英语不好的中国人。2、博卡拉：湖边酒店很多，向日葵色板官方只住了YETI GUEST HOUSE（电话：+977-61-462423）这一家，如果时间允许，建议萨朗科（SARANGKOT)住一晚，你一定会有意外的收获。3、Timang：A-2 Restaurant,Timang,Manang，这家的平台是看马纳斯鲁的最佳位置，向日葵色板官方很遗憾地与它擦肩而过。4、Upper Pisang：HOTEL MANANG MARSHYANGGDI RESTAURANT & SHOP，电话：019-442001，994660006，睡在房间就可以看见安娜普尔纳II。5、Muktinath：HOTEL BOB MARLEY，电话：9841975367，9847680212，山上最有情调的客栈，老板喜欢摇滚，主厨澳洲工作15年。6、Marpha：PARADISE GUEST HOUSE & ROOF TOP RESTAURANT，电话：069-400015，这家的铁板鸡扒和混合蔬菜很不错。7、Kalopani：See You Lodge & Restaurant，电话98560-21091，061-531563。喜欢这家的阳台，看日出和拍星轨的好地方。8、Ghorepani：HOTEL HILL TOP & RESTAURANT，电话：9846067932,9847655571；SUPER VIEW LODGE & RESTAURANT，电话：9846137370，9847655598。这两家是Ghorepani位置最高离POON HILL最近的客栈，不用上山也能看到群山日出。博卡拉是全球最适合发呆地之一，湖光山色，风景绝美，但需要用心去发现。美丽的费瓦湖Tilicho Lake(5010)，你是世界上最高的湖，走近你需要勇气。Poon Hill，世界最佳观景台之一。危险的塌方区。安娜普尔纳的夜晚值得期待，那是雪山和星空的约会。这样的夜晚，你在哪里？不经意之间，向日葵色板官方走过秋天。梦境中的穿行。我要飞得更高。生活原来可以这样。。。徒步不仅仅是自虐，更多的时候应该是享受！安娜普尔纳大环徒步23天全记录向日葵色板官方选择的是大环+Tilicho Lake+Poon Hill，一共徒步15天。D19月21日，深圳—广州—加德满都1、下午2：00深圳八卦岭机场大巴，两个半小时到达广州机场。2、19：30，南航CZ3067航班正常起飞，00：15（当地时间22：00，比北京时间晚2小时15分钟）到达加德满都。3、INTERNATIONAL GUEST HOUSE

House，吃住都很便宜。D49月24日，BESISHAHAR—Syange— Chamje—

你看你的水喷的到处都是
吴文男几个月前来到驴友论坛，此地高人辈出，令人惊叹不已。看帖看久了也想贡献一点自己的经验，但我没有上山下海的体力与毅力，我的工作也不允许请太长的假，要说户外活动，实在没有拿得出手的东西，想了又想，只有2007年去新西兰的自助旅游还值得一看，于是就整理一下，发了上来。事先声明，我是台湾人，我知道有很多事物在两岸有不同称呼，例如我去的New ZEALand这个国家，你们称为新西兰，我们则称为纽西兰。入境随俗，我会尽量用你们的说法，但是这篇游记内容繁多，我不可能事事求证。如果你们觉得有些句子怪怪的，那就是台湾习惯的说法，也许我疏忽了没有改正，或者我不知道你们会怎么说，请见谅。新西兰由两个大岛组成，也就是北岛和南岛。这是我和老婆在2007年春节去新西兰北岛自助旅游半个月的游记，只去群岛湾（Bay of Islands，北岛着名景点）和奥克兰（Auckland，新西兰最大城市）两个地点，游记大纲如下。2月18日：高空云层、奥克兰、派希亚的晚餐2月19日：派希亚的清晨、向日葵色板官方住的汽车旅馆、熟悉环境、罗素小镇、晚餐2月20日：哈鲁鲁瀑布、到处闲逛、糖船餐厅2月21日：出发之前、海湾巡航、返回派希亚、晚餐2月22日：海豚发现之旅、再访乌鲁普卡普卡岛、水下风光、归途、再访糖船2月23日：清晨出发、公路休息站、九十哩海滩、沙丘滑行、瑞因格岬角、午餐和点心、巨木森林、晚餐和姜汁汽水2月24日：出发之前、海滨步道、欧普瓦的周末市集、森林步道、预约的晚餐2月25日：被放鸽子的高空跳伞2月26日：三访乌鲁普卡普卡岛、晚餐2月27日：清晨的日出、空中俯瞰群岛湾2月28日：出发之前、奥克兰的旅馆、外出逛街、亚伯特公园、夜景3月1日：晨景、奥克兰大学、失望的玫瑰花园、奥克兰公园3月2日：迪芬港一日游、晚餐、奥克兰灯节3月3日：到处走走、海事博物馆、墨西哥晚餐、尾声 2月18日高空云层出发时还是冬季，台北总是灰天暗地，凄风苦雨，感觉很郁闷。到纽西兰就不一样了，二月是当地天气最好的月份，清晨在飞机上醒来，就看到一望无际的蓝天白云，预报一个美好的假期。照片上奇怪的七彩颜色是偏光镜造成的，不知为何，在高空就会这样。整个行程我都把偏光镜装在镜头上，懒得拿下来了。2月18日奥克兰一下飞机就坐巴士到市中心的巴士站，离出发还有一段时间，就在附近逛一逛。回复 roray 的帖子谢啦！您是第一个回复的码头边的渡船大楼(Ferry Building)。 码头的一角 刚离开码头的渡船。这一家Fullers在奥克兰和群岛湾都有据点，经营渡船和当地旅游业务，向日葵色板官方这一次旅游都搭乘他们的渡船，也参加了他们的三个旅**程。（旅.游.行.程.当中的游.行.被河蟹了 ）码头旁的街景，周日的下午，街道颇为冷清。 2月18日 派希亚的晚餐坐了十小时的飞机到奥克兰，又坐了四小时的巴士才到群岛湾(Bay of Islands)的门户小镇派希亚(Paihia)，抵达时已经是晚上七点，终于到了，好累啊。 向日葵色板官方在派希亚的住宿地点是停泊点汽车旅馆(Anchorage Motel)。旅馆就在海边，沿海的路上有一整排餐厅。第一天的晚餐选择了隔壁的六号餐馆(Cafe No. 6)。六号餐馆和海滩只隔着一条马路，这一带的餐厅有很多座位设在户外，我老婆正在看菜单。 绿唇胎贝(green lip mussel)，用白葡萄酒煮，加大蒜、西洋芹(parsley)、橄榄油、柠檬汁，新鲜又美味。 这是spreads & dips，spread是用来涂抹面包的酱，dip是用面包沾来吃的酱。盘子左边有四个小格，分盛四种酱料。黑色是陈年义大利醋，黄色是特纯橄榄油(extra virgin olive oil)，白色是黄瓜优格酱，橘色是兼具咸酸甜味的奇怪果酱，还有面包、黑橄榄、生菜叶，随个人喜好自由搭配。典型的生菜沙拉。 2月19日 派希亚的清晨群岛湾是纽西兰的旅游重镇，但是本身的人口不多，这一带的小镇都是几千人的规模，派希亚也不例外。这个海边小屋就在向日葵色板官方的旅馆对面，出租帆船、小艇、自行车等运动器材。旅馆前的海边道路。这里的房屋旁边都有宽广的草坪和大树，令人羡慕。看下面的房屋就知道这棵树有多高，如果在圣诞节来个张灯结彩，会是非常壮观的圣诞树，不知道他们会不会这样做。 这里的房屋不是整片都一个样，而是各有特色小小油罐车，给直升机加油用的 从旅馆走十几分钟就到了码头，在码头边的一家咖啡屋吃早餐。柠檬酸乳酪蛋糕，烤得太干了，不好。([]

许淑华早已不记得上一次写游记是何时了，因为懒因为没有文字功底因为麻烦因为一切。。。这次出发之前就决定了无论如何要写，多年后以便翻看。我不会华丽的润色，只有直白的叙事，图片也是原图，未加修饰，所以各位就凑合着看吧。 一年里，假期，是我日夜期盼的日子。用一段短暂自由的时光进行一次异地或是异域的旅行，到陌生的环境去体验新的生活，经历更多以认识更好的自己。崔健在“假行僧”里说，“我要从南走到北，我还要从白走到黑，我要人们看到我但不知道我是谁”。今年继续西行，再次进藏，旨在阿里。阿里转山，说实话，我对自己很没把握，体力和意志早已被长期的城市生活消磨殆尽，可是我，想去。拜此次出行所赐，结识了一帮损友，茉莉和无泪费心做好了路书，向日葵色板官方明目张胆的享受，嘻嘻。。。初见时的拘束，离别时的拥抱和泪水，伴随着欢笑和喜悦，真实的风景真实的自己和他人，只有经历过才能成为回忆。远游异乡，一路上吃过糌粑，啃过羊肉，饮过酥油茶，穿过荒凉藏北，曾在冈仁波齐经历恶劣的气候，也曾触摸过古格历史的沧桑。八千里路云和月，向日葵色板官方一起看过美丽的风景，流连于每一个美妙的措畔，迷失在路上短暂的光阴里。旅行的美妙，不在于向日葵色板官方去到了哪些名胜古迹，而是能有一段飘泊的时间，随心所欲的到处走走，无所事事的发呆，或是在小巷子里迷路，看看当地居民为什么事而幸福快乐，让向日葵色板官方从一个自己呆腻了的地方，到一个别人呆腻了的地方，离开熟悉的环境去探索陌生的风景。西藏，是一个梦，向日葵色板官方既是逐梦人，也是造梦者。带着新鲜的记忆，且让我用普通的相机和笨拙的手法，粗糙但真实的记录下其中的一些片段，让朋友们透过我的眼睛看我看过的风景，也为了我忘却的纪念。 和伙伴们约好了7月12日拉萨出发，至于怎么到拉萨，大家就各显神通了，我早了几天到拉萨，混迹拉萨街头，因为之前就到过西藏，所以这几天过得格外颓废，不是在茶馆里喝甜茶，就是在书店里懒散的写下几张明信片或是早起跟着人潮涌动的转经队伍围着布达拉宫转动经筒，多少个晨昏，我坐在大昭寺门前的台阶上，看着那些虔诚的身影，聆听他们的身体和大地碰撞的声音 拉萨之于藏民来说就如同麦加之于伊斯兰教一样，是朝圣者们的终极目的地。拉萨那作为圣城的浓重的宗教气息，朝圣者们围着布达拉宫围着大昭寺转经，磕着数量惊人的长头，经年累月，寒暑往来，虔诚不改。大昭寺门前的青石板经无数人的匍匐，早已被磨得光滑。而那些来自青海云南四川的虔诚信徒们，他们带上家里的所有来到这里，穷尽毕生所有奉献给菩萨，以求得到来世的解脱和幸福。拉萨就是这么一座奇怪的城市，至今依然如此奇怪，世俗与神圣搅在一起，美丽与丑陋搅在一起，你只有无数的新奇与诧异，它有时会让你喘不过气来，有时又会让你屏住呼吸。 7月9日，西藏博物馆，如同内地的其他博物馆一样，馆内一样收藏了许多的石器和陶瓷制品，关于这些我就不再详加赘述，这里是西藏，我就捡些和西藏有关的说说好了。这颗金印是康熙五十二年时册封五世达赖罗桑益西为“臣额尔德尼”时所赐之金印。五世达赖对于当时的政局稳定起到了很大的作用，他坚持和睦团结，，人们都称他为“伟大的五世”。早在很久之前，藏传佛教就随着当时吐蕃的军事，政治的极大扩张而兴盛起来了，吐蕃的赞普让家中的长子出家为僧以示对佛教的尊崇，更让佛教徒参与政事，以至于之后西藏形成了政教合一的政治格局，这才有了六世达赖仓央嘉措的悲剧。那个被政治牺牲的年轻的生命和他那小心翼翼的无处安放的爱情。贝叶经，原产于印度，巴基斯坦，克什米尔等地，是用金汁或是银汁书写在一种叫作贝加罗树叶上的珍贵的佛教经典。由于战争，许多的经书都遭到了毁坏，而西藏由于兴佛而引进了很多的佛教经典，当然也包括了贝叶经，因此避过战乱而得以保存。所以现在是贝叶经保存最多的地方，贝叶经存于西藏的布达拉宫，博物馆和哲蚌寺。这个面具是跳藏戏时所佩戴的格萨尔王面具。<格萨尔王传>是一部藏族长篇英雄史诗，藏族的民间文学巨著。它讲述了格萨尔王一生为藏民降妖伏魔，除暴安良，南征北战，统一了各个部落，大到老人小到孩童多少都知道一些格萨尔王的故事，现在在那曲的一些茶馆里仍然还有着民间艺人们在唱着格萨尔史诗，每一个艺人们所知道的有关格萨尔的故事都不一样，每一个老人们也都有自己喜欢的说唱艺人。 唐卡，意为可移动的佛像，藏族人民对佛教的尊崇是向日葵色板官方无法想象的，由于早期游牧民族的特殊性，他们不可能守着一片草地从春吃到冬，当草场没草时他们就会拆下帐篷，赶着牛羊去寻找下一块水草丰美的住所，周而复始，这样就导致了他们不可能每到一个地方就建一座寺庙来崇拜，于是他们就把佛像画在了布上，这样当他们迁徙时就可以把佛像卷起来带走，这样无论走到哪里都不会影响藏民的礼佛。唐卡上的颜色来自于各种珍贵的宝石，蓝色的蓝松石，绿色的绿松石，黄色的黄金，白色的珍珠，也正是因为这些名贵的石头，再加上制作唐卡时的繁复与费时，所以唐卡的价格是昂贵的。画匠们将那些名贵的石头磨成细细的粉末，再加上牛胆等物质，按照一定的配比配制而成，永不褪色。通常唐卡的绘制，画匠们将画板的顶端牵一根绳悬挂于屋顶，自己则盘腿坐在低矮的凳子上，画板的下沿搁在自己盘起的双腿上，画底稿，一层一层的着色，勾线，最后点上佛的眼睛，画匠们说，最初师傅会自己亲自给佛像点上眼睛，只有当徒弟们的技法十分纯熟了，师傅才会放心让徒弟们独自完成最后的步骤。今晚记流水账。。。7月9日，10日，11日伙伴们的陆续抵达，我结束了独自游荡的日子，这几天向日葵色板官方在拉萨的街头厮混中彼此熟悉，从网络的想象到生活的真实。相约清晨去药王山拍布达拉宫的日出，清早的西藏寒冷异常，风呼呼的吹，到得太早，药王山的小门要到7点才开，向日葵色板官方几个徘徊在山脚下，找寻着避风的所在，徒劳无功。开门的人姗姗来迟，赶紧爬上去各自占据了有利地形，又在寒风中等待。。。唉，这个早上算是白来了，没有日出，只有寒风，冷。我放弃了，下到门口收钱的师傅的小房子里避风，门口的师傅很乐意我帮他看看大门，嘻嘻。。。半小时后，伙伴们也放弃了，找了一茶馆，吃一顿藏式的早餐，酥油茶加藏面，说实话，藏面真是有够难吃的，面条很粗，由于高原气压的缘故，面条很难被煮透煮软，咬起来有点硬，面汤倒是很不错呢，好喝。早餐之后，秋，无泪和我去布宫帮别的队友排队拿布达拉宫的预约券，上布达拉宫需要提前一天拿身份证到布宫的侧门领取预约券，第二天再凭着预约券上预约的时间到布宫参观。娃娃和开水则回去与球会合办理尼泊尔的证，各自行动。感谢无泪下午陪我去办理那麻烦的边防证日出前的布宫，漆黑一片，达赖不在，到底谁在里边住呢？住在这里该是多少喇嘛的愿望啊？好奇啊，实在是好奇难吃的藏面，好喝的面汤，还行的酥油茶今晚记流水账。。。7月9日，10日11日伙伴们陆续抵达，我结束独自游荡的日子，这几天向日葵色板官方在拉萨的街头厮混中彼此熟悉，从网络的想象到生活的真实。10日，相约去拍药王山的日出，清晨的西藏寒冷异常，风呼呼的吹，药王山的小门要到7点才开，到得太早，向日葵色板官方徘徊在山脚下，找寻避风的所在，徒劳无功。开门的人终于姗姗来迟，赶紧爬上去，各自占据有利地形，摆开架势，之后又是无尽的等待。唉，这天算是白来了，没有日出，只有寒风，冷。我放弃了，下到山下的买票小屋去避风，顺便再帮看门的师傅收收门票，嘻嘻。。。半小时后，伙伴们也放弃了，寻一茶馆，吃一顿藏式的早餐，酥油茶加藏面。说实话，那藏面真是有够难吃的，面条很粗，由于高原气压的缘故，面条很难被煮透煮软，咬起来有点硬硬的，面条不咋地，面汤倒还不错，好喝。早餐之后，秋，无泪和我去布宫排队帮队友拿布宫的预约券，上布宫需要提前一天拿身份证到布宫的侧门领取预约券，第二天再凭预约券到布宫购票参观。娃娃和开水则回去和球会合去办理尼泊尔的证，各自行动。感谢无泪下午陪我去办理边防证没有日出的日出前的布宫，漆黑一片。达赖不在，是谁住在里面呢？住在这里该是多少喇嘛的愿望啊？好奇啊，实在是好奇！！难吃的藏面，好喝的面汤，还行的酥油茶12日要开始阿里之行了，我是否该先把向日葵色板官方的线路报告一下呢？此次的线路是茉莉姐姐和无泪费尽心思做出来的，茉莉姐姐和无泪弄好一切琐碎，向日葵色板官方只管享受，(*^__^*) 嘻嘻…… 那我就先把路书贴出来好了，此次反走阿里，纳木错进，日喀则出，很特别呢DAY1：拉萨——纳木措——班戈DAY2：班戈——尼玛DAY3：尼玛——文布北村——文布南村DAY4：文布南村——措勤DAY5：措勤——帕江——仁多DAY6：仁多——亚热——普兰DAY7：普兰——塔钦，转山第一天DAY8：转山第二天DAY9：塔钦——扎达DAY10：扎达——仲巴——萨嘎DAY11：萨嘎——吉隆DAY12：吉隆——老定日DAY13：老定日——珠峰DAY14：珠峰——日喀则DAY15：日喀则——拉萨第二天向日葵色板官方本来定的是到文布南村的，后来因为我们在辽阔的草原里迷路了，天色又太晚，我们只好又返回到中午路过的县城尼玛，双湖的行程也因路况不妙而遗憾的放弃了。西行阿里，走在朝圣的路上，不安，兴奋与紧张，许多的地方仍是无人区，既无公路也无食宿，人类的足迹尚未踏足这片土地。那是生命的禁区，它拒绝了人类生命的呈现。可是，野生动物却是阿里草原上最为自由的精灵，它们肆意的奔跑在草原上，与风与云与草做伴。阿里恶劣的气候，清贫的生活，却因信仰的强大力量而丰富，人们虔诚的转山，令人动容。当然还有那一路上的各种措，纳木措，色林措，扎日南木措，当惹雍错，玛旁雍错。。。都是阿里的措，向日葵色板官方只能一措再措，将措就措。阿里的山，阿里的云，阿里的风，阿里的阿里，就让山林原野收留向日葵色板官方的梦想，带向日葵色板官方去远方。7月12日出发喽！一行11人，3辆车。在去往班戈的路上，路过一个小村子，当地的村民正在过一个叫”望果节“的节日，据向日葵色板官方的藏族师傅说，这个节日没有固定的日子，是根据青稞的成熟时间来定的，在青稞成熟之前，人们用这种方式以祈求粮食的丰收。纳木措是向日葵色板官方遇到的第一个措，兴奋自是无需言表。纳木措与羊卓雍错，玛旁雍错并称为西藏的三大圣湖。纳木措湖面海拨4800米，湖水清澈，它的形成和发育受地质构造控制，是经由喜马拉雅凹陷而成，现今湖水仍在不断的退缩，至今湖周围留有曾经的古湖岸线。下车就是一通狂拍，快门咔咔的响。因为反走阿里，向日葵色板官方来到的不是通常游客去的那一片湖畔，那里满满的全是游人，人头攒动，满满的全是商业。这一片湖畔，除了向日葵色板官方，没有别人。大家在湖边拗着各种造型，跳跃的，武打的，文艺的。。。总之就是怎么疯狂怎么来 自拍是必须滴，拗造型也是要滴 7月13日，班戈——尼玛 今天向日葵色板官方真正的进入藏北草原，都知道阿里的野生动物多，可真正看到时还是难掩激动！在电视上书籍上听到很多关于藏羚羊的话语，可那都很遥远，初见在原野上悠闲吃草的藏羚羊，哇！那个激动啊！嘴里叫着“师傅师傅，快停车快停车！”一边急急的摇下车窗，拿起相机就拍，可那精灵也实在警觉，向日葵色板官方还在远远的，它就已经被吓跑了藏北高原，荒无人烟，平均海拔都在5000以上，严酷的环境，恶劣的气候，是人类生命的禁区，却是野生动物们的天堂。因为这些可爱的生灵，阿里不是寂静无声的荒原，它充满了生命的律动。曾见识过新疆大地无边无尽的荒野戈壁，那个无助让人绝望，满眼尽是黄色的沙，没有水没有草，天上没有飞鸟，地上没有走兽，怎么远望，看到的都和脚下的一样，茫茫一片。与新疆的茫茫戈壁不同，阿里的天地是那样的宽广，生命是那样的鲜活。藏野驴，藏羚羊，野牦牛，旱獭，野兔。。。在无尽的草原，艰难的生存者，每一个渺小的生命都充满了生的渴望。这也许就是阿里的美之所在吧！ 有一个措，是色林措吗？还是措愕？？不知道，就连向日葵色板官方的藏族师傅都吃不准，不管了，反正是阿里的措 往阿里没有路，因为处处都是路，只要你愿意，车怎么开都行。所谓的路，不过是车轮在石头上压出的印痕而已。一路上，这样的情景不断的被重复，仿佛你真的在天堂，又似乎踏上了火星远处倾盆大雨，向日葵色板官方这儿却是阳光普照 措措措，今天的第二个措，唉，还是不知道名字 午餐喽，阿里，别说是餐厅了，能看到人就不错了，通常向日葵色板官方在茫茫草原上走一天都看不到人，这为向日葵色板官方接下来的迷路带来了大麻烦。出发之前，超市的大采购，就是向日葵色板官方每天的午餐厨房，要什么有什么，要什么没什么;P 没有餐厅，满草原随便坐，包场用餐。席地而坐，胡乱的吃，开心的说笑，糌粑配咸菜也一样美味 荒凉，只有云团在飞 白天方便来方便去，晚上向日葵色板官方可就不方便喽。完蛋了，迷路啦！！！！！原定今天的目的地是要到达文布南村的，120公里的路程，出发之前，师傅说4,5个小时能到了。到了天黑，居然还没看到哪怕一点点的村庄的影子。要知道，西藏的天可是要到晚上10点才会黑呢！不得不承认，向日葵色板官方迷路了，这回真的成了原野上的藏野驴了，迷失在旷野里。藏北高原，荒无人烟，由于没有路，也最易迷失方向，无边无际的无人区，若是走不出去，危险是显然的。想问路，对不起，不行。在这里，即便是你懂十种语言也无济于事，根本就没人让你问，城市里万能的手机也早就在进入草原后变成了一堆废铁。虽然向日葵色板官方带着食物和睡袋，可阿里夜晚的危险和寒冷是向日葵色板官方无法想象的。通过和师傅们协商，向日葵色板官方决定回到中午路过的一个叫尼玛的小县城。 夕阳下坠到了地平线之下，大地即将沉入黑暗，而向日葵色板官方还将被这片黑暗包围。天空上演着晚霞变幻莫测的剧目，时间因这昼夜的交替，每一秒都让人感动 远处的地平线下，放射出一片神秘的光，让人百思不得其解，阿里之美，只这一刻，足以打动。([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, ";Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分，不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦，希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子，原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co， where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30)， 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evalsuate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]
